[00:01:39] become British
[00:01:40] in citizens. of Britain needs
[00:01:43] a to a
[00:01:43] of tuffen up on foreign criminals
[00:01:46] a and uh we are we do stand full square with Ukraine, we have done since
[00:01:50] the
[00:01:51] of outbreak of of this war. The
[00:01:54] in UK stands with
[00:01:55] of President Zelensky following Donald Trump's calls for him to be ousted,
[00:01:59] of plus the... Prime minister is pushing plans to scrap photo, id

[00:02:10] it, you
[00:02:11] of
[00:02:12] of know, well despite ruling it
[00:02:14] a out of both Kemy Badnock and Naja Faranch are readying their party for
[00:02:18] a snap
[00:02:19] a general election,
[00:02:21] of also tonight are MPs opening
[00:02:25] the
[00:02:25] of door for police to be
[00:02:30] of of of in of of sued, Well stay with me because on my panel tonight, former labor special advisor Paul
[00:02:34] Richards, political commentator Alice Grant, and former
[00:02:38] Metropolitan police detective
[00:02:40] me Peter
[00:02:40] of Blexley.
[00:02:46] of
[00:02:47] of
[00:02:51] of of And Donald Trump has gone after
[00:02:55] Canada, Greenland, and now he's after the ocean. So
[00:02:59] we need
[00:02:59] of river with. need an ocean, so you think it of either the Atlantic or the
[00:03:04] of Pacific, of we call it Trump ocean,
[00:03:10] of in
[00:03:10] of or or ocean
[00:03:17] in of the American, something like that,
[00:03:23] Britain needs to touffen up on foreign criminals, there
[00:03:26] of are more than
[00:03:31] a in 10,000 foreign nationals currently sitting. in our presence, a study
[00:03:32] a last of year found that they are costing you
[00:03:34] of and us and me, the taxpayer
[00:03:36] of around
[00:03:37] of 643 million pounds a year. now that's the
[00:03:40] equivalent of
[00:03:42] of 15,000 new police officers salaries. no wonder our prisons
[00:03:46] are at breaking
[00:03:47] of point, but it gets worse. it turns out that the prisons housing
[00:03:51] these criminals could actually be helping them stay in
[00:03:54] Britain.
[00:03:55] a behind me of these gates, a foreign criminals are being trained on how to
[00:03:59] become British citizens: Yes, this is jail
[00:04:03] exclusively for foreign prisoners and in the library
[00:04:06] of paid for by the taxpayer are books on how to pass
[00:04:10] the British citizenship
[00:04:13] in test. Books are being
[00:04:15] in provided, brought, bought with the taxpayers
[00:04:18] of money of that of could help foreign
[00:04:19] of criminals pass the British citizenship test.
[00:04:22] in HMP Madestone refused to remove the books and practice papers
[00:04:25] specifically designed to help foreign prisoners prepare for
[00:04:29] of the
[00:04:29] of life. the
[00:04:30] in UK test, now that's the key stepping stone to becoming a British
[00:04:35] of
[00:04:35] in citizen. the president's
[00:04:36] a governor has refused also to remove these materials from the library, but even when the
[00:04:40] government does manage to deport
[00:04:41] in them, in they go in comfort. the sun reports that
[00:04:45] of jail inspectors have demanded that criminals be removed from this country,
[00:04:49] should not be handcuff because it's too upsetting for the
[00:04:52] offenders and illegal migrants, give your heads a
[00:04:55] of wobble seriously, there are people who have broken
[00:05:01] of of the of law and... independent monitoring board report seen by the
[00:05:02] of in sun of reportedly claimed that using restraints during transfers
[00:05:07] of causes of significant stress and anguish, and this is despite
[00:05:11] in repeated reports of
[00:05:12] in detention officer. of being assaulted when trying to remove these
[00:05:15] people, no, no, helping them stay,
[00:05:19] no soft treatment, no more excuses, it's time to get tough on
[00:05:23] foreign criminals, deport them, stop spending taxpayers money, helping them
[00:05:27] become British, and stop treating their feelings as more important
[00:05:31] than the safety the public and the officers doing their job,
[00:05:34] enough is enough, all right, let's get the thoughts of my panel,
[00:05:38] former labor advisor Paul Richards, political commentator Alice.
[00:05:42] grant and former Metropolitan police detective
[00:05:46] Peter Blexley. Peter Blexley, I must come to you immediately on
[00:05:50] this. I think we need to get tougher on all criminals, let alone foreign
[00:05:53] criminals. I'm sick and tired of this revolving front door at so
[00:05:57] many of our prisons. I'm sick and tired of early release
[00:06:01] schemes. I'm sick and tired of this having a complete
[00:06:04] criminal justice system which is not fit for purpose.
[00:06:08] So that starts with the police at the front line, then it goes to the...
[00:06:12] cps, underfunded, underperforming and often
[00:06:16] kind of polluted by a woke kind of mindset, then we get to the
[00:06:20] courts, so many them will be sitting empty tomorrow when they could
[00:06:23] be up and functioning, about 20% capacity of our crown cts not
[00:06:27] operating properly, then we go to the prisons, we all
[00:06:31] know about the dreadful state of our prisons and how
[00:06:35] repeated governments have not created enough prison
[00:06:38] capacity, and then we get to the final hurdle if you will, which is...
[00:06:42] probation again, overworked, underpaid, not
[00:06:46] performing properly, the whole thing is a catastrophic mess
[00:06:49] and what have a the reports in the sun that uh, well actually what might
[00:06:53] happen is you know we don't want to hankuff them because that makes them feel too distressed, and
[00:06:57] also you could potentially sue police officers if - well for whatever
[00:07:01] reason i guess, any foreign prisoner who is to be deported
[00:07:05] from this country of course needs to be placed in handcuffs
[00:07:09] in order to protect those staff who have the off-
[00:07:12] very, very difficult job of getting them onto
[00:07:16] aeroplanes and out of this country. I'm sure that many,
[00:07:20] many members of your audience have never had to
[00:07:23] deal with an extremely violent
[00:07:27] person. I have a number of occasions and it is
[00:07:31] very unpleasant, often takes a number of people from whatever it
[00:07:35] may be, whatever arm of law enforcement to deal with them, and it's
[00:07:38] very difficult. Some these people, when they are being removed from the country.
[00:07:42] will do everything humanly possible to prevent that
[00:07:46] process, handcuffs, I'd have them shackled by the ankles, I'd have
[00:07:50] them in straight jackets to get them out of this country. why, why do you
[00:07:54] think, Paul Richars, it seems there's some sort of infection of a woke mind
[00:07:58] virus where saying, oh, don't put these poor people in handcuffs, they'll be distressed. I
[00:08:02] mean, maybe they've served the sentence, but they're being deported, so if they really
[00:08:06] want to stay, they will use every tactic in the book, including trying to run
[00:08:09] away. Uh, yes, it's hard to disagree with that, I tend to
[00:08:13] agree with Peter's analysis of each stage, I would add in
[00:08:17] also we're not very good at rehabilitation, so there you know the reoffending
[00:08:21] rate means that people are going the revolving door and that's not good either, so we need to
[00:08:25] look at that aspect of it too, um we
[00:08:27] are where we are in terms of prison places and that's why we're having to go through this
[00:08:31] ridiculous early release scheme because otherwise the whole system would fall over,
[00:08:34] I think we all agree that's you the wrong place to be in, however I don't what
[00:08:38] the alternative is, the only issue about deportations on the...
[00:08:52] sure would
[00:08:52] so it I'm be
[00:08:52] not any better off, has that
[00:08:54] well happened, but I think it would, I think they would has ever happened, well I'm sure it has, but I mean I just
[00:08:58] think that
[00:08:58] it would be saying that that's what would happen and you're sure it would, you can't name one time
[00:09:02] where it has happened, I think governments would say, well hang on, we're not just taking all these people,
[00:09:06] we've got our own troubles and they would say right, all these British people in in jails go
[00:09:10] back, well where are all these swaps?
[00:09:15] Yeah, not only that, but we need to be strong on deterrence, like that's really what's key
[00:09:19] here, and it's not just about finding solutions, though I
[00:09:23] agree, it's really important to understand what we do with the deportations,
[00:09:27] and they do need to be in large numbers at the current rate that we that the crisis we
[00:09:31] have on our hands, but it's about being strong from the
[00:09:35] beginning, and for example, these policies like not handcuffing people when
[00:09:39] they commit an illegal act, I mean this is what contributes to the fact that we're...
[00:09:43] international laughing stock and that people think they can come here because they're not actually going to
[00:09:47] be faced with any real justice, well
[00:09:48] I mean this is recommendation at the moment, so it's not yet policy, but the fact that somebody is
[00:09:52] thinking in this manner starts to sort
[00:09:54] of symptomatic the kind of way that we
[00:09:58] approach these things and hence why we have such a big crisis on our hands. Peter, you're
[00:10:02] so right to say everything that you didn't the perfect person to talk about this,
[00:10:05] because you know you know what it's like to deal with people who are
[00:10:08] violent here for the right reasons like we talked you. couple
[00:10:12] weeks ago about the fact that so many knives are being also
[00:10:16] found on our borders, like it's it's a massive crisis, these people aren't here for the
[00:10:20] right reasons, they're not here, with good nature, with good, good will,
[00:10:24] so...
[00:10:25] here, people might say they they finished their sentence, now they're being deported,
[00:10:28] so they didn't, they didn't do
[00:10:30] the right thing when they
[00:10:31] they were were caught out and now they're going, so they they might say that
[00:10:34] actually they are not, well they are criminals but they're not anymore, so the
[00:10:38] serve the sentence, you are releasing them, therefore we won't put the handcuffs on
[00:10:42] because it's not very nice, well if you're here illegally you've already committed an act
[00:10:46] that means that you should be deported, and if you've committed a criminal act was
[00:10:50] here, then I'm sorry, but you don't have the right to be upset if you're
[00:10:53] handcaffed, you just need to...
[00:10:56] to be dealt with what do you make of this book then
[00:10:57] that they can that are in the prisons poll where they can read about how
[00:11:01] they can pass the british citizen conflicted on that cuz if they actually do want to
[00:11:05] become a british citizen and they want to you know what about what we want we don't
[00:11:09] want and that is the way you learn about British culture and so on by
[00:11:12] the the book that all people that want to become citizens have to do and they're doing that
[00:11:16] rather than committing criminal acts then what's wrong with that they're a prison they've learned a lot
[00:11:19] about they've learned a lot about the British culture because they've gone out and
[00:11:23] breached every rule by stealing, robbing, raping,
[00:11:27] murdering or whatever else is that's got them in the prison. serve your
[00:11:31] time,
[00:11:31] then off you trot. and i really don't care if it's in a straight
[00:11:35] jacket that you are put on that plane and got rid of. we do believe
[00:11:39] in redemption, don't we? we do believe that somebody can go. not if you come to this
[00:11:43] country and break our rules. if you come to this country as
[00:11:46] guest, so if they've come in here legally, if
[00:11:49] legally, and then you breach our hospitality by
[00:11:53] breaking our laws as... far as I'm concerned, you lose every
[00:11:57] imaginable right to remain in Great Britain and
[00:12:01] off you go, in fact I'll drive the van and I'll fasten the straight
[00:12:05] jacket and I'll
[00:12:06] put
[00:12:10] that I mean I appreciate the soft touch and you want to have a you want
[00:12:14] to be well, I don't what you want to be, maybe gentle sources
[00:12:17] people, but they are criminals the finish their
[00:12:20] sentence, our criminal justice system is based on you, if you serve
[00:12:24] your... time and you've you repaid your debt to society, you then
[00:12:28] re-enter society, not if you're a foreigner
[00:12:31] forever, when you're a citizen that makes sense,
[00:12:34] because
[00:12:36] you know to be honest, how many these people show any remorse? let's be real, probably
[00:12:40] very few, to be
[00:12:41] honest, such
[00:12:44] difference to be made about someone who is a criminal who repents, who wants to
[00:12:48] change the life, and what and and then just being really
[00:12:52] reckless, because we do not want people on our streets, and commit crime after crime,
[00:12:56] especially when they've already they're already here illegally, it's just reckless, like you wouldn't want
[00:12:59] someone in your house who's just committed a crime and hasn't shown any remorse.
[00:13:03] Paul, I feel compelled to repeat myself, which is not great
[00:13:07] television, but I'm just wondering tonight whether you're hard of hearing or hard of
[00:13:11] thinking, if somebody comes to this country as foreigner and they
[00:13:14] break our laws and they got a prison, then they have no right to
[00:13:18] remain here and they should be banished, then why are they in prison at all then? because
[00:13:22] they've broken the law, but you on your logic? then they should be deportted straight away
[00:13:26] on sentence, I didn't say that, you see, you just made something
[00:13:30] up, you completely and utterly made that up, right? because I
[00:13:34] actually said when they serve their sentence. now, if you want me to expand on
[00:13:38] that, I happily will, because so much of my thinking is based
[00:13:41] around victims and remember, your foreign criminals create victims
[00:13:45] of crime, so if somebody is raped for
[00:13:49] example, or murdered, then I do not want them deported until they
[00:13:53] have served their full sent. because sometimes they be
[00:13:56] deported to a country, say for example an afgan comes here and
[00:14:00] rape someone and let's face it, enough them do, so they then get convicted
[00:14:04] of rape in this country, don't pull face, it's a fact, read the papers, read
[00:14:08] the papers, it might help you, the people are
[00:14:11] interpreted british army, yeah, just just have look at how
[00:14:15] many afghans have come here and raped people, on the
[00:14:18] scheme, look up for youif, have look at the facts of how many afghans have
[00:14:22] committed rape in this country, right, so if they then get deported
[00:14:25] to the
[00:14:26] to the Taliban ruled Afghanistan for example, I wouldn't was want
[00:14:30] that, because in all likelihood they'd probably be lorded as heroes
[00:14:34] the minute they arrived in Cabball, so I want them to serve their punishment
[00:14:38] here and then get the first plane out of
[00:14:40] here, I think that's fair
[00:14:42] enough, why should they stay? yeah, and
[00:14:46] if if just yeah for to play devil's advocate, if
[00:14:50] they have gone through the prison system, they have become
[00:14:53] redeemed and they want. to become British citizens and they are reading the books that are
[00:14:57] there about how to become a citizen, what's wrong with that? they should be
[00:15:01] deported. I don't want somebody who's come to this country, raped someone,
[00:15:05] murdered someone, them being realloud into British
[00:15:08] society, they should be banished, that's not all the
[00:15:12] criminals we're talking about, no, well I don't care if they're a burglar, a shoplifter or they've parked
[00:15:16] a double yellow line, if they come from Afghanistan they can clear off back
[00:15:20] there, well now come on, that's a bit unfair bause there will be some some
[00:15:23] afghans to actually... very nice, but the ones who are in
[00:15:27] prison, I'm afraid I have no sympathy at all, I didn't talk about the very, very nice
[00:15:30] ones, I talked about the ones that broke the law, we absolutely have a
[00:15:34] right to pick and choose who we want to contribute to our... country, our
[00:15:38] society, our economy, are people who come here and there are so many good
[00:15:41] natured, hard-working people who have something to offer us, so have something to contribute to
[00:15:45] our society who bring positivity, why would we want people who committed
[00:15:49] crime? it's just logical. well, i think it's quite simple really, we don't want
[00:15:53] people in crimes in this country, i just
[00:15:55] you know, i just it just because belief that there are people there who
[00:15:59] are even supporting this like that present governor who seems to be saying that there's
[00:16:02] nothing really what wrong with supplying them with a book about how to become a British
[00:16:06] citizen, what? in prison having broken uh the rules in this
[00:16:09] country, because I think it should be ultimate immediate deportation after
[00:16:13] you've broken the law, there shouldn't be any flexibility after you've served your
[00:16:17] sentence,
[00:16:18] it is the next step is deportation, I'd rather they had books to read
[00:16:21] that had deportation flight time tables on it,
[00:16:25] information on why you're being deported or or just to remind you the rules of this, maybe
[00:16:29] the bible would be good, well let's face it, they might already have had leaflet about
[00:16:33] not not the right people might now when they arrived here, let's face it, we got thousands of
[00:16:37] people. washing up on our shores who were given leaflets saying not to have
[00:16:41] sex with children and rape people and the such like that's the state of his
[00:16:44] country and when you say that out loud it sounds like ridiculous thing to
[00:16:48] say that you've given them booklets about how not to be be pedophiles and
[00:16:52] rapists and sexual predators but unfortunately it's true
[00:16:55] i shouldn't laugh but it's actually true we had to do
[00:16:59] that absously shocking disgrace an absolute
[00:17:03] disgrace and such a letdown um to every
[00:17:06] single every single one of us already. All right, Paul, I'll give you the last
[00:17:10] word on this. No, no, I'm, I'm
[00:17:12] done. In response to
[00:17:16] reform UK's request to remove the material. HMP Mason, governor Paul
[00:17:20] Mason said, having reviewed the material concerned,
[00:17:24] I have not identified any security, safety, good, order,
[00:17:28] discipline or public protection concerns arising from the
[00:17:31] availability of life in the UK test study
[00:17:35] materials within the prison library. is the publication subject to any
[00:17:39] national restriction? as such, there is currently no policy basis
[00:17:42] upon which I would justify directing its removal from
[00:17:46] prison stock. well, the government spokes person said all prison
[00:17:50] read material is kept under constant review and we are urgently investigating this
[00:17:54] matter. prisons such as HMP Maystone are helping speed up
[00:17:58] removing foreign criminals and the results speak for themselves. since coming
[00:18:02] into office we have removed more than 11,700 foreign
[00:18:05] criminals, the highest number in nearly decade and we are

[00:18:55] to the truth. This is, this is personal. No soft questions,
[00:18:59] no easy answers. It's one thing, if the state has rules in this

[00:21:17] Welcome back to Alex Armstrong, tonight with me. a queer: now labor
[00:21:21] is facing accusations of ramming through
[00:21:25] controversial election laws that would allow people to vote
[00:21:28] without ID. now under these proposals pushed by the
[00:21:32] prime minister Ander Burnham, voters could use a bank card at
[00:21:36] polling stations with labor arguing that the changes would
[00:21:40] make voting more accessible and boost
[00:21:43] turnout. now to me that seems utterly nonsense, who
[00:21:47] hasn't got some form of photo? id:
[00:21:51] really? the conservatives introduced mandatory photo ID in
[00:21:55] 2023, something
[00:21:56] that they did that was actually useful, and the idea of that was to combat
[00:22:00] electoral fraud, but the electoral commission has raised
[00:22:03] concerns about the new proposes, those new proposals
[00:22:07] being that people can fate without photo ID. it comes a
[00:22:10] mid-mounting speculation of early general election. so
[00:22:14] tonight, i'm asking, should Britain ax photo
[00:22:18] ID checks? Well we're now joined by the co-founder the
[00:22:22] Together Association, Allan Miller and political commentator
[00:22:25] Thomas Harris. All right, Alan Miller, I'll start with you.
[00:22:29] What's wrong with insisting that people should have photo ID
[00:22:33] to vote? Well, I think it's really ironic Nanna that we've
[00:22:37] got a situation that we are being forced into digital
[00:22:41] ID, even though we've been told that we are not, um,
[00:22:44] around everything from social media band which is going to make everyone verified
[00:22:48] digitally to... one login, eight million directors having
[00:22:52] to digital verify, and yet when it comes to elections,
[00:22:56] there's a speedy rush to eliminate this, so you can
[00:23:00] just
[00:23:00] use a bank debit card uh and also uh
[00:23:03] have a burker where have your face
[00:23:07] covered, when we've also got uh we're being told that you have to
[00:23:10] remove masks on all sorts of protests, well at least some kinds of
[00:23:14] protest, so it looks very stark that whilst we're going in one
[00:23:18] direction a range of... areas to insist on digitally
[00:23:22] verifying digital id, across the board to get on the town square, when
[00:23:26] it comes
[00:23:26] to something that's fundamental as whether it's our citizens, one person, one
[00:23:30] vote, it's being scrapped along of course with the
[00:23:33] attempt to introduce 16-year-olds to on the one hand we're being told that
[00:23:37] we need to protect them all the time, but then they're getting given the vote, so it
[00:23:41] looks like it's very, very instrumental uh just to
[00:23:45] get the kind of votes they want and it looks very
[00:23:48] transparent, you because I don't think that's a
[00:23:52] big deal, I don't think it's a great infringement of your liberty to come in
[00:23:56] and use some sort of id to verify you are you say you are
[00:24:00] when you are voting, Thomas, surely that's a good
[00:24:02] idea, what I would say first of all, is I completely agree on digital idea,
[00:24:06] I think that's something that that I completely agree with uh you on this
[00:24:10] point, obviously you mentioned that this change was introduced in 2023 by the
[00:24:14] conservative party, quite interestingly one of your own contributors, Jacobs mog
[00:24:18] actually said that it's didn't actually really benefit
[00:24:22] anyone particularly because what you ended up with is lot of uh pensioners
[00:24:26] who'd forget to take their ID being unable to vote at the same time
[00:24:30] the the introduction the law specifically had carv
[00:24:34] outs for things like a pension of bus passes and so on and so forth which
[00:24:38] meant that whilst there were various ways for elderly people
[00:24:42] to register the vote those were not available to young people you couldn't have for
[00:24:46] example um young person's bud path being eligible form of
[00:24:50] voter identification, so I think we need to be really clear that like, well
[00:24:53] yes, you know, a party to a certain extent it's always going to try and
[00:24:57] benefit,
[00:24:58] you know, how how do they get their vote out there, that's not something unique to labor
[00:25:01] in this case, the conservatives did the very same thing on 16-year-old voting, look,
[00:25:05] I'm in Wales, we had 16-year-old voting in the senate
[00:25:09] elections this year, and as far as I can see I'm still a democracy,
[00:25:13] you know, we're all still standing, and in fact you know we
[00:25:16] we've had a complete change the parties so... 'I don't really get
[00:25:20] the hysteria
[00:25:21] over 16-year-old voting if I'm if I'm really honest, especially being a
[00:25:25] country that has had it now for the last election, yeah
[00:25:29] the sorry go alan, you go, well it's not
[00:25:32] hysteria, let's be very clear, on the one hand we're being told that we have to
[00:25:36] protect children all the time, yet at the same time uh
[00:25:40] 16-year-olds are now sweepingly being presented with this, more than 50%
[00:25:44] the public don't vote, the attempt to win the majority the
[00:25:48] British public over'. is almost being jettisoned and we've seen in
[00:25:51] increase a kind of sectarianism in multi languages being
[00:25:55] presented in elections, we know there's concerns around family voting, the
[00:25:59] idea that for instance when you wear a burker a... place like going into
[00:26:03] vote that you can't just be quietly taken to the side and show who you
[00:26:07] are, all these things are of grave concern, and frankly, in the last five
[00:26:11] years what we what we've seen in Wales, we've seen somewhat
[00:26:15] of an aberation of things when it comes to democracy, particularly
[00:26:19] around some the lockdowns, very different to what happened in England,
[00:26:22] and as it happens where you've got in positions around driving and other
[00:26:26] measures which not proper consultations, so I wouldn't be
[00:26:30] celebrating the democratic content of... what's gone on in Wells and the
[00:26:34] point is why are so many people not voting and I think
[00:26:38] it's because of lack of trust and when they see something as cavalier and instrumental
[00:26:42] as this on the one hand you're forcing so many people in Britain
[00:26:45] constantly to have to show and prove who they are just to engage just to
[00:26:49] verify even promoting
[00:26:51] which I don't agree with by
[00:26:52] the way I try to make clear though I I don't agree with that either like as as
[00:26:55] pointly argument stems from the idea that like
[00:26:59] we're on one hand telling 16-year old
[00:27:01] that they need to be protective also say that they should be able to vote my argument
[00:27:04] is
[00:27:05] that the protectionism the the digital id program is also
[00:27:08] bad, like so so the premise they're not adults, they're not
[00:27:12] adults, yeah we've got
[00:27:14] they are going to live with the future consequences of we've got no I know but so
[00:27:17] so four year olds and eight year olds, the point is they're not adults,
[00:27:21] they need to finish education, you can't
[00:27:23] go and have a drink, you can't you got
[00:27:25] levels of you can't go and have alcohol, you have a whole range of
[00:27:29] rules around becoming adult in society, to crave
[00:27:33] attempt with kind of snotty view, a bit like the whole Brexit
[00:27:36] discussion, all those coffing dodgers, all the old people, with
[00:27:40] cavalier attempt just to cultivate, just people
[00:27:44] that are under age, so it's highly disagree
[00:27:47] with, did you, did you disagree with the conservatives attempt to um favor elderly
[00:27:51] people with their decisions in 2022 there, with the idea of making a
[00:27:54] carv out for an elderly person's bus pass while not making a making a cat out for
[00:27:58] any other form of bus pass, surely that's just them catering to their voters in much to say:
[00:28:02] is it not? well no, i thought i thought that was strange and
[00:28:06] i'm not, mean like there are many things that the that the conservatives have
[00:28:10] done that i think utterly wrong like the attempt to introduce vaccine passports and
[00:28:14] now we've seen with digital id a whole array of things than non-crime
[00:28:18] hate incidents and free speech. the point i think is
[00:28:22] again is that this is becoming increasingly clear that it's an attempt by somebody's
[00:28:25] got voted by 25,000 people in makerfield by the way where he said he
[00:28:29] wasn't going to then try and go back into the EU because majority them are
[00:28:33] strongly brexit in the red war area, now he's talking about going
[00:28:37] back into the EU and completely, he
[00:28:41] only had 25,000 votes, not the nation, and saying,
[00:28:45] well, um, you know, we're going to force everyone to do this digital id, but not
[00:28:49] if you're coming to vote, then you can just have a card, and we're not even going to be sure
[00:28:52] what sex you are or your identity, it is
[00:28:56] absolutely transparent, and it looks like it's a further
[00:29:00] around sectarianism. as we've seen right,
[00:29:03] sectarianism, the attempt not just by the greens but labor as well to
[00:29:07] do things in other languages, this is Britain
[00:29:11] and things should be done a certain way and it's kind of
[00:29:14] insulting I think to the public. did did democracy not
[00:29:18] exist then prior to 2022 a functional state? did it only exist
[00:29:22] post post the introduction of that? would you say that the 2019
[00:29:26] res let's not be let's not be junior about this we've been going steadily
[00:29:30] a let's be you're going to asking? questions, but here's the point,
[00:29:34] we've steadily gone down a situation where the demos has been treated with
[00:29:37] contempt, the majority the public is treated as though we're
[00:29:41] sort of mad, bad and dangerous and stupid consistently, and
[00:29:45] now we're being presented on the one and with all sorts of measures that's going to make
[00:29:49] it very difficult, whether you're presenting your tax returns, eight million
[00:29:53] directors and others and host of different areas you're being forced, social media
[00:29:56] bands, which means everyone's going to have to digitally verify across the
[00:30:00] board to demonstrate who you are, even to go to the pub now, like we
[00:30:04] know with credit cards, all of sudden cash has gone, it's going to go
[00:30:08] in that direction, it's looking, but yet when it comes to the vote, no, and I
[00:30:12] think the point is about the past, when it comes to the sectarian
[00:30:15] point that we've consistently gone a direction where the
[00:30:19] labor party in particular can't appeal to its constituency of
[00:30:23] British workers, the original working class people that was
[00:30:27] historic relationship and they've become ever more partisan and
[00:30:31] sectarian, "we've seen that a range of constituencies, particularly in
[00:30:35] the midlands and the northeast and the northwest and parts of London, and that's the big
[00:30:39] battle that's going on between them and the greens in particular, and I think it's really
[00:30:42] craven, and that is also part of what the problem is with the way they're
[00:30:46] wrapping this all up. okay, final word to you, Thomas,
[00:30:50] well, I would just say that I think my position is that I agree with you on the
[00:30:54] freedoms, the lack of lacking of freedom of digital idea, I think is wrong, but I also
[00:30:57] think that making the vote more accessible is not is not
[00:31:01] in'. with that, I want more freedom across the board, including when it comes
[00:31:05] to voting, so I'm I'm saying that there shouldn't be a car out
[00:31:09] specifically with voting, you're saying that you you, you believe the labor
[00:31:13] government to be doing things that are restricted. people's freedoms and
[00:31:16] act that
[00:31:16] I actually agree with to a certain extent, but I'm also saying that I think in some
[00:31:20] ways we have seen low voter turnout voter supression as result the
[00:31:23] 2022 um alterations, so I think that
[00:31:27] yes, yes, so you think that the what happened is
[00:31:31] harmed voter turnout instead of, yes, so you don't
[00:31:34] think it should be necessary for people to prove exactly who they are
[00:31:38] when they're voting on something that's very important uh when it comes
[00:31:42] to like getting rid of any form of... it's not really like they're getting rid of
[00:31:46] any form of identification, it's just not necessarily going to
[00:31:50] be just the the forms that they've suggested, like for example, they want to use bank
[00:31:54] cards as well, but you don't have you got a debit card that says
[00:31:58] jay smith, j smith on the debit card could be
[00:32:01] anyone, yeah well mean i mean i don't,
[00:32:04] i think lot
[00:32:04] of no image, come on, mean
[00:32:08] seriously debit card any could look they could look up,
[00:32:12] but
[00:32:13] too much
[00:32:13] too much sorry hold. hold on second, no, that's too much,
[00:32:17] isn't it? seriously, let's be honest, Thomas,
[00:32:19] that why do you think, what do you think is their motivation, do you think it's simply to get a higher
[00:32:23] turnout for across the board, or do
[00:32:25] you think perhaps they're trying to swift, swizzle it a bit so that it's harder
[00:32:29] for the people who aren't as likely to vote for them uh to vote for
[00:32:32] them, i think it's more likely that they want to mobilize their vote, i wouldn't deny
[00:32:36] that, but that's the same of most most parties in any country, as i said the
[00:32:40] conservatives did it with the 2022 re, and i don't doubt that with
[00:32:44] with this emotion that yes, they're thinking it will mobilize the youth vote because
[00:32:48] for example they don't necessarily have easiest forms of identification, i
[00:32:51] myself don't drive for example and a driving license is easier
[00:32:54] form right, you've
[00:32:56] been abroad, you've got yeah, do yeah,
[00:32:59] but not everyone remembers to bring the passport, yeah, well they should
[00:33:03] do, it's really simple, when you when you're going abroad, you have to remember to bring your passport,
[00:33:07] so imagine you're going on holiday and take your passport, all right, alan miller and thomas harries,

[00:37:36] to speed with the latest, you're sure. are you keeping up? good.
[00:37:40] join me on jubes and ker week nights at 6 p.m. only
[00:37:44] on GB News, brins news channel. i've been in
[00:37:48] westminster for a long time, but i know that though power
[00:37:52] may be here, its effect on people's lives is across the
[00:37:55] whole the country. "We may be where rules are
[00:37:59] made, but it's where they're implemented that matters. Join
[00:38:03] me, Jacob, for fourth right and frank discussion on where
[00:38:07] Britain has come from, where it's going and where it will end up. That
[00:38:11] State the Nation Monday to Thursday, 8 to 9 o'clock.
[00:38:15] Vox Populy, Vox Day. Some people
[00:38:19] enjoy lazy Sunday mornings, but not me. What's the truth
[00:38:22] the matter? So that's a very live question. Would you support him if he waters down these
[00:38:26] plants? Before the spin sets in, I'll be getting to the
[00:38:30] truth. This is this is personal. No soft questions, no
[00:38:34] easy answers. It's one thing if the state has rules in this country, it's
[00:38:38] another thing whether the police and others actually police them, setting the
[00:38:42] agenda and holding those in power to account. You can't really
[00:38:45] blame her if the system is set up this way. You will not want to miss
[00:38:49] it, trust me. The caminatomy show, Sundays from

[00:38:58] warm family branches, from football to tennis in the car,
[00:39:02] in the kitchen, GB News Breakfast is there with the
[00:39:06] stories you need and the conversations that matter. Anyway,
[00:39:10] let's talk business. Well, it has been a historic
[00:39:14] night in British politics. It's astonishing, isn't it? We're here again
[00:39:18] to start your day just right. GB News
[00:39:21] breakfast every morning from 6 am. Only on GB
[00:39:24] News, Britain's news channel.
[00:39:32] "welcome back to Alex Armstrong, tonight with me, Nana Aqueer, so
[00:39:36] Britain has backed Ukrainian president Vladimir Zelensky after
[00:39:40] Donald Trump called for him to be replaced in an extraordinary
[00:39:43] round over new US deal with Russia. Now Donald Trump says it's
[00:39:47] time for Ukraine to get new president, accusing Zelensky of
[00:39:51] making problems to the world by continuing attacks on Russian oil
[00:39:55] refineries, and this comes after Washington." and agreed to
[00:39:58] temporarily lift sanctions on Russian diesel exports
[00:40:02] and move that Zelensky warns will help fund Putin's war in
[00:40:06] Ukraine, but defense secretary West streeting says Britain
[00:40:09] opposes the deal
[00:40:10] and stands firmly with Zelensky. It's not the first time we've seen a
[00:40:14] disagreement between Washington and Keep, between President Trump and President
[00:40:18] Zelensky
[00:40:18] and in these situations it's our responsibility to try and bring our
[00:40:22] friends back together uh we we do stand full square with Ukraine,
[00:40:26] we don't support the... US decision on on diesel uh
[00:40:30] and as for President Zelensky, I just say two things, firstly,
[00:40:34] it is for Ukraine to choose their leadership, not for anyone
[00:40:37] else, and secondly, I mean, I've had the the privilege of meeting President
[00:40:41] Zelensky, I think Ukraine is fortunate to have had someone of that
[00:40:44] courage. So is Donald Trump
[00:40:48] betraying Ukraine? Well, let's get the thoughts of my panel former labor
[00:40:52] special advisor
[00:40:53] Paul Richards, political commentator Alice Grant, and former
[00:40:56] MetroP and police detective Peter Blexley. All right, Alice Grant, I'm going to
[00:41:00] come to you first. I am very suspicious of any sort of
[00:41:04] attempt by America to intervene any sort of global
[00:41:08] politics. I just think history shows that they love meddling
[00:41:12] and they almost never, um, the outcome is
[00:41:16] almost never peaceful and it's almost never right, and I think it'd be a mistake to
[00:41:20] think no matter how bad we think Zelensky is or whether we
[00:41:24] like him or not, because yep, there are real questions. He is still a... democratically
[00:41:28] elected leader and for that reason
[00:41:32] um simply we just leave like it's not right to
[00:41:35] medal
[00:41:37] next. and
[00:41:40] Trump. Paul Richards, well, what the deal will do is put money in
[00:41:44] the hands of Putin, which he will then use to fund his
[00:41:48] proxies in Iran and to kill Ukrainians and that's
[00:41:52] what the result of this deal will be, and if Trump had simply done a
[00:41:56] deal with Canada for the same amount of diesel, then the same
[00:42:00] outcome would have happened in terms of reducing the the the price the
[00:42:04] fuel, but he's chosen to do it, well maybe Canada won't deal with him
[00:42:07] because he wants to take Canada. "the consequences of
[00:42:11] this are murderous and dangerous and I'm appalled by it
[00:42:15] and and all these people that say oh he's a Russian asset all this stuff I don't believe
[00:42:19] that but he would behave like this if he was a Russian asset because it's only going
[00:42:22] to help the Russians
[00:42:23] all right uh
[00:42:24] Peter Blexley well first of all I have to point out the utter
[00:42:28] ridiculousness of what you said Alice okay let me just I
[00:42:32] know you you have youth on your side and I most definitely don't
[00:42:36] but on the 6th of June 1994 America had
[00:42:40] very, very big say in global events, and it was
[00:42:44] massively to the benefit of you, me, everybody in this
[00:42:47] building, and everybody, excuse me, excuse
[00:42:50] me, and to the benefit of every
[00:42:53] member the GB News audience this evening, so that is a
[00:42:57] quite frankly ridiculous thing to say, yes, some
[00:43:01] American intervention in other conflicts has been
[00:43:05] unhelful, but to say such a sweeping statement
[00:43:09] is a deep, deep... insult to the millions of people that sacrificed their
[00:43:12] lives so that we could enjoy the freedoms we have today. okay,
[00:43:16] Peter, I strongly disagree. um, firstly, when I really talk about American
[00:43:20] intervention, I meaning in the Middle East, and the regime changed there, and the
[00:43:24] issue with hegemmany a global hegemony like America, is that the
[00:43:28] fundamental mistake is to think that they have our best interests at Britain's
[00:43:32] interests. personally, I don't think we should be involved any war, I don't
[00:43:36] think we should be sending our soldiers to Ukraine, neither do I think we should be at
[00:43:40] full rallying to support Russia who evidently could nuku us a
[00:43:43] second with no remorse, but my
[00:43:46] issue is that we're so eager to sort of count out
[00:43:50] America or even cout out the EU when no one ever puts Britain's interests
[00:43:54] first, that is what I really strongly believe, and I don't think America has
[00:43:57] Britain's interests and in fact, it's not just something I don't think, it's something that we all
[00:44:01] know, when has America ever actually stod up for our interests,
[00:44:05] they do they do not care about us, they would happily see us as their like 50
[00:44:09] second state. whatever, Elon Musk, Trump, they treat
[00:44:12] us disgustingly on the world stage, they have
[00:44:16] humiliated our leaders, they have humiliated our nation and so many of our
[00:44:20] conferences, and to be honest, I have absolutely no time for
[00:44:23] Trump's America, and I believed in Trump, and I wanted him to be the
[00:44:27] conservative leader that he promised to be, but instead he has only caused war,
[00:44:31] he has only served American interests, ruthlessly, he only
[00:44:35] cares about enriching America and basically
[00:44:38] serving the gl. corporations which effectively run this world
[00:44:42] and I don't have any time for that kind of ruthless anti-humanitarian
[00:44:46] politics and certainly I don't think our leaders should be should be
[00:44:50] account should be in support of that either, I don't think he's our friend, once again I can't believe that
[00:44:54] you've paid such huge insult to the memory of so many
[00:44:58] millions by using that blanket kind of language again, because
[00:45:02] just rewind what you said if you want, if someone's recording recording it,
[00:45:05] watch it when you get home, okay once again you rul
[00:45:08] every American. an intervention as being unhelpful, yeah, i don't
[00:45:12] think they've been overall helpful, i think america is just, mean look at look, are you ignoring
[00:45:16] ddday? no, i'm okay, come on, that's okay, when we're
[00:45:20] talking about, no, no, no, i won't come on, are you ignoring
[00:45:23] ddday, listen, when it comes to
[00:45:27] those, do have to ask you to answer the question,
[00:45:30] peter makes a good point, respect your point of view, but he makes a good point, what
[00:45:34] about dday, i actually, you know, and
[00:45:38] maybe i'm a bit of p enthusiast in this respect, but I
[00:45:42] really don't think in great hindsight that the two world wars actually created a
[00:45:46] better world or better order that they that was before. all we saw was
[00:45:50] the death of millions of British young soldiers, young men dying
[00:45:53] assam, thousands of men sacrifice
[00:45:57] their lives, and what is the result the world we see today? is it the freeer world
[00:46:01] that was promised? will those wars actually worth that sacrifice? when i look at the
[00:46:05] world we have today, i really wonder what's happened and i don't i
[00:46:08] don't see
[00:46:09] very quick. quickly, not to say that I don't admire those
[00:46:12] man, of course, well, we're far better off without German militarism
[00:46:16] dominating the last century, and we're far better off with the Nazis having been defeated
[00:46:20] in the 40s, but also don't forget America's role in
[00:46:24] NATO and and maintaining the peace that we've had for 80-90 years
[00:46:28] in this country as well, I'm no fan of Trump
[00:46:32] and I'm no fan of mus, but I am very much a fan of NATO and the Western
[00:46:35] Alliance and strong defense is what stops wars all right, well have to leave
[00:46:39] there.
[00:46:40] I just want to pull you up on something that uh Europe, many countries in Europe are still buying
[00:46:44] russian oil as well. All right, well listen, stay with this. No,
[00:46:47] it is true, I've just been, yeah, they shouldn't be, but that's just as bad as Donald Trump. All right,
[00:46:51] despite really get out. are readying their parties for
[00:46:55] snap general election, also tonight. This is Alex

[00:50:01] Howard. This is GB News, Britain's news
[00:50:05] channel.
[00:50:13] So welcome back to Alex Armstrong tonight, with me Nanna Aquare. So Britain
[00:50:17] could be heading to the polls before Christmas. I mean, do you believe it? Do you think Andy
[00:50:21] Burnham is brave? enough to attempt to maybe squander his majority,
[00:50:25] I don't think so. Cannock has told her party to prepare for a possible
[00:50:29] snap general election, that is emid growing speculation that the prime
[00:50:32] minister could call early vote. Reform UK leader
[00:50:36] Nigel Farage says that his party is also on
[00:50:39] emergency general election footing, but is ruled out an
[00:50:43] electoral deal with the conservatives, so will you be
[00:50:47] heading to your nearest pulling station sooner than expected? Let's get the
[00:50:50] thoughts of my panel.
[00:50:52] and to start with you, former labor advisor, Paul Richards, do you think there
[00:50:56] is any chance Annie Burnham would be brave enough to call early general,
[00:51:00] well he's not unbrave, I mean he has done a series of brave things in his life, I mean the
[00:51:04] labour party has won a by-election in make field against
[00:51:08] reform and now it's just one a by-election in Hoben against the
[00:51:11] greens, so it can argue that it has seen off threats for to its
[00:51:15] left and its right majority
[00:51:17] that they won by was substantially smaller in Albon wasn't it, well the turnout
[00:51:21] was lot smaller.
[00:51:22] but actually
[00:51:27] was the
[00:51:28] turn low, vote out share held up exactly, but the point, the point is three times less, it does give you a
[00:51:32] sense that it's it's game on now a way that it wasn't a year ago,
[00:51:36] however I don't think he's going to squander an enormous labor
[00:51:39] majority in return for either very small one or even
[00:51:43] a minority position or even pact with somebody else, so why would he
[00:51:47] throw that all
[00:51:48] the way, well why it not be at the expense of him sliding
[00:51:52] in the poles? and then losing the next general election, because he can't get anything done, can
[00:51:55] he? he has to follow's mandate,
[00:51:57] and if he does doesn't do that,
[00:52:00] exactly, more than they do now, the counter argument is that
[00:52:04] the he's... found by a manifesto that in not of his own making, especially on
[00:52:08] the uh, you inability to raise tax, the three main
[00:52:11] taxes, so does he want his own mandate, but I just the the mood music, talking
[00:52:15] to MPs, talking to people at the conference a week or so ago,
[00:52:19] you know, it's the appetite is not there, because it would just because they're too scared, no,
[00:52:23] it's not that, I think it's just, but this is a government elected with a big majority, why would you throw it
[00:52:27] away, can't
[00:52:28] get anything done, because these backp just don't like him and don't want follow his policies, well they love him, what are you talking
[00:52:32] about, now burnum, they love him, well the be Absolutely
[00:52:35] love they're the ones who got him in the job, what are you talking about? prove it in the
[00:52:39] poll, prove it, prove it at the ballot box, what is he's that brave with that
[00:52:42] majority then absolutely, but he doesn't have to have an election for another two and a half years, so
[00:52:46] he could have one in the spring,
[00:52:47] I mean that's a possibility, but I think an autumn or winter
[00:52:51] election,
[00:52:52] I mean Boris pulled it off in 2019, he managed it, but that was against Jeremy
[00:52:55] Corbin, not a great achievement, let's face it, I think
[00:52:59] right now, I think right now he just needs
[00:53:03] to carry on governing and...
[00:53:05] uh maybe in the spring the things a little different, but I just don't, I think I can see why Kemy's
[00:53:09] doing this cuz obviously she needs to keep her troops on side and maintain the momentum
[00:53:13] and show that she's in charge and stop all these people that she doesn't like becoming
[00:53:17] candidates
[00:53:17] all that stuff, however I think it's more gamesmanship than
[00:53:20] it is genuine prospect. Alex, I mean I can totally see why
[00:53:23] it's um strategically why be strategically bad for labor to
[00:53:27] call an election, but it is so artilly undemocratic
[00:53:31] and I do think that we need to have our say as soon as possible because why? just
[00:53:35] well because no one actually voted for Andy Burnham apart from
[00:53:39] 24 people
[00:53:44] elect prime constitution ministers
[00:53:45] don't okay we that's a fair point but i would say that is increasingly
[00:53:48] it is becoming about who's leading at helm and i don't think
[00:53:52] anyone andy burnham like what is he actually achieving what is he actually doing i think
[00:53:56] he's very incipid leader he's done some good things he has talked about growth and
[00:54:00] every post good and hope and every early
[00:54:03] outside the cabinet, nobody is better connected to the labor
[00:54:07] party than paul, paul, you just said about a
[00:54:11] potential pact with somebody else,
[00:54:13] and that's the hand movement
[00:54:14] you use, who is the somebody else? well,
[00:54:18] not the greens, I can tell you that, I didn't ask you, it's not, I said, who is
[00:54:22] the somebody else? on the electoral maths, you would have to do deal with the lib dems
[00:54:26] stay, now that's why that's a good argument for not having the election, if
[00:54:29] we got an alarm bell we can ring, imagine labor in the lib dems, the touries the lib
[00:54:33] dems were worst enough.
[00:54:35] I tend to agree, that's why the majority coming out, tourists in London are being
[00:54:39] scammed by organized migrant groups, Zack Garna Perkers joins
[00:54:43] us to share his exclusive, this is Alex Armstrong,
[00:54:46] tonight only on GB News with me Lana Aquier, but first an update with
[00:54:50] your
[00:54:50] weather,
[00:54:56] expect warm spells with the odd rude
[00:54:59] interruption, box boiler sponsors the weather
[00:55:03] on GB news. Hello there, good evening and
[00:55:07] welcome to your latest GB news weather forecast. Increasing
[00:55:11] cloud over the next 24 hours, some outbreaks of rain and
[00:55:15] drizzle pushing north and eastwards, but turning increasingly mild.
[00:55:19] Atlantic weather system slowly pushing in from the
[00:55:22] west as we move through tonight and into tomorrow, moving away that ridge of
[00:55:26] high pressure, clearing skies for a time though, this evening across northern and
[00:55:30] eastern parts the UK, turning chilly before the cloud and rain
[00:55:34] arrives. from the west here, temperatures rising through the nights
[00:55:38] in double figures for many here, still single figures towards
[00:55:42] Monday morning in the far east, but for all of us, a frost-free
[00:55:45] start to Monday morning, gray skies in the west, outbreaks of rain and drizzle,
[00:55:49] hillfog in places, limited brightness across the east though,
[00:55:53] best of this will be across northern and eastern Scotland, first thing,
[00:55:57] temperatures here on the Chile side, across western Scotland
[00:56:00] cloudy start, outbreaks of rainages or similar across Northern
[00:56:04] Island, parts of England and Wales, few glimmers of
[00:56:08] brightness down the east coast of England before the cloud thickens as
[00:56:12] we move through the morning, eye breaks of rain and drizzle slowly pushing
[00:56:15] north and eastwards through the day, we could see one or two heavier bursts but it will generally be
[00:56:19] light and patchy, the wind's coming in from the south fairly
[00:56:23] breezy around the coasts and with that breeze it may just help break the
[00:56:27] cloud up at times in one or two spots to allow few brighter
[00:56:30] breaks or some sunny spells trying to move through, but most of us it will be
[00:56:34] cloudy. but much milder temperatures in the high teens for most
[00:56:38] locally getting to 20-21 celsius where we do see
[00:56:42] any sunshine. heavy rain in the northwest, monday night will push
[00:56:45] slowly southeastwards through Tuesday, turning much brighter behind
[00:56:49] it with sunshine and blustery showers. showers most frequent in
[00:56:53] the northwest here and temperatures again reaching the high
[00:56:57] teens. dry day on Wednesday before further wet and windy weather
[00:57:01] arrives as we move into Thursday.
[00:57:05] expect warm spells with the odd rude
[00:57:08] interruption: box boiler sponsors the weather

[01:00:24] "good evening,
[01:00:24] it is 10 o'clock, i'm not aquire in for Alex Armstrong,
[01:00:28] tonight, why do you go when the police, when the police showed up, why did you
[01:00:31] leave? why did you leave when the police showed up? why do you leave? why
[01:00:35] are you running away from me now? tourists in London
[01:00:39] are being scammed by organized migrant groups,
[01:00:42] plus some of what we would want to
[01:00:45] do in the fullest sense will require..." difficult, difficult
[01:00:49] decision. To come back to the tax point, I will stick to the
[01:00:52] manifesto. That is
[01:00:54] important. Warnings of tax rises
[01:00:58] to come as John Healey scrambles to find funds to plug a
[01:01:02] 35 billion pound gap. Are MPs
[01:01:05] opening the door to police for them to be
[01:01:08] sued? And on my panel tonight, former labor
[01:01:12] special advisor, Paul Richards, political commentator, Alice
[01:01:16] Grant, and former. polton police detective Peter
[01:01:18] Blexley
[01:01:32] and Trump has gone after Canada, Greenland,
[01:01:34] and now he's after the ocean. So we need river, we
[01:01:38] need an ocean, so I just think of either the Atlantic or the
[01:01:41] Pacific, we call it Trump ocean,
[01:01:45] or...
[01:01:51] or ocean the Americans, something
[01:01:54] like
[01:02:02] that. Tourist scammers have taken over Britain's
[01:02:05] capital. Why did you go when the police, when the police showed up? Why
[01:02:09] did you leave? Why did you leave when the police showed up? Why do you leave?
[01:02:13] Why are you running away from me now? When Zak
[01:02:17] Gana. Perkis from the Daily Express decided to investigate London's
[01:02:20] migrant penny cap network. Is it any wonder that they
[01:02:24] didn't want to speak to him? Can you talk to us? I see that oh you're
[01:02:28] hiding your price. Why are you hiding your price? mate, why are you hiding your
[01:02:31] prices? why are you hiding your prices? why are you hiding your
[01:02:35] prices? are you going to rip off some tourists?
[01:02:38] yeah, answer few the questions mate, yeah, you need to be, you need to have
[01:02:42] license to be doing this in a month's time, have you got your license is it on the
[01:02:46] way? no answers, they don't speak English either, which is going to be a problem because you need
[01:02:50] minimum levels of english. so despite
[01:02:53] new regulations set to come in that will control prices and
[01:02:57] demand strict English requirements and proper background. checks, these
[01:03:01] guys seem completely unfaced, they have no intention of stopping
[01:03:05] and continue charging astronomical prices. Hi there
[01:03:09] sir, can you tell me about what you get for £165? £165
[01:03:13] pound, what do you get?
[01:03:13] I don't understand English, but you you know that Penny cab drivers are going to need
[01:03:17] to have a minimum level of English right? That's more expensive, it needs to be £1
[01:03:21] pound a minute right? That's the new regulations. Yours is £17 a minute. There was
[01:03:25] one lady, she bought rt kit, he charged her from here to
[01:03:29] tower of London.
[01:03:30] 350 funny
[01:03:34] that they understand money though, and it's not just the peticaps, there's a whole fleet of
[01:03:38] ice cream trucks and they are riping off London's tourists
[01:03:41] too. hi there sir, we just want to see have you got a license
[01:03:44] here, are you? i don't want have you got a license though, have you got a
[01:03:48] license? have you got one the official council licenses to service cream?
[01:03:52] yeah, is it not supposed to be displayed for the public? yeah, but it's the
[01:03:56] public should still be able to see it, i get the your but we should be able. say it just
[01:04:00] so that we can verify that you are licensed here, he said all he said
[01:04:04] to me was he's got it, that's it, he's got it
[01:04:06] right, millions of visitors come to this city every
[01:04:10] year and they're being targeted by organized migrant groups who see
[01:04:14] them as easy money, crackdown is supposed
[01:04:18] to arrive at the end the month, but will it actually make any difference
[01:04:22] or will these scammers just carry on as usual laughing at the
[01:04:26] rules whilst they flease another wave of tourists well?
[01:04:30] investigators editor for the daily express Zack Garnaperkis joins me now zack
[01:04:34] that was you in there um this is the thing
[01:04:36] I mean it's right under the noses really the police are not
[01:04:40] far from this area why why don't they crack
[01:04:44] down on this or do something well this is a big question right cuz Westminster
[01:04:48] bridge people might not know that the headquarters the Metropolitan police
[01:04:52] actually overlooks it so you've got the MPs in parliament
[01:04:56] that are overlooking this and everything that is going on and then you've got all the police.
[01:05:00] officers, the thing that surprised me, we went down there to go and look at the
[01:05:03] scammers, it what was shocking was that
[01:05:06] there was an organized group that everyone just knew about, we didn't actually go there think knowing,
[01:05:10] okay there's going to be a gang and they're going to be controlling this, they've all got
[01:05:13] identical, laminated uh price list with the extortionate
[01:05:17] prices, they all rush up and push the other uh peticab
[01:05:21] riders out
[01:05:22] uh yeah it's it's astounding that it's taking place in that location and you
[01:05:26] think if it happens there what hope for the rest the country?
[01:05:30] right, because coming up there'll be, they'll need to have
[01:05:33] licensing, but so what if nobody is going to check
[01:05:37] your license? mean, you're probably probably one the first people that's even bothered to
[01:05:41] go down and ask them questions. well, yeah, exactly. mean,
[01:05:44] and the tactics that they have are so blunt for you, trying to deal
[01:05:48] with, it's just, i don't understand english, but you know, it's a
[01:05:52] ploy, that's how you know, that's what they do when they get questions they don't
[01:05:56] want, as soon as they get customer in, they understand english plenty well. and
[01:06:00] yeah, like you, it's simple, a problem that
[01:06:04] seems simple to solve, but we somehow make it so complicated,
[01:06:07] right? because even with the ice cream vans, and I know someone used to have ice cream van
[01:06:11] business, he had to pay a fortune to get the the positioning,
[01:06:15] the license and everything else like that cost him a fortune, he made very good money, but
[01:06:19] it's also hygiene, you have to fill these things up with water and you have to go
[01:06:23] up a good standard of ingredients and so on and so forth, these people are
[01:06:26] handling food, well actually in the clip that you played, what you
[01:06:30] don't see is there's a second part to it where we went around the corner, we found someone that had
[01:06:34] license, i said, oh yeah, what about the one that we just went to? and they said, oh,
[01:06:38] they just take a penalty, they just took the penalty as the business expense, and when we
[01:06:41] went back around, we noticed that they had like a sticker just on there, and of
[01:06:45] course they they they they left as soon as we came, and but they just
[01:06:49] pop up again, and it's just like the people doing it by the book are the
[01:06:53] ones that get punished and the people that just ignore the rules kind of
[01:06:57] just get away with it and are laughing at everyone, so there's actually no deterrent
[01:07:01] really is there? mean, what's the deter people? that
[01:07:05] does it get raided at all? do do the police show up? did you get any?
[01:07:09] in some other burrows right, with stuff like ice cream, they will seize a
[01:07:13] product and and just make their life really difficult. look, it's a tough one for
[01:07:16] these local authorities and all the rest
[01:07:18] of it, they could just it's made so complicated right? i think that's the thing,
[01:07:22] it's like why can't we just have something simple to tackle all
[01:07:25] these issues that we've got, why is it so complicated that the police can't?
[01:07:30] just go look, that's you know, we'll take your vehicle,
[01:07:33] if you're ripping people off that's not on, exactly, you park your car somewhere you're not going
[01:07:37] to park your car, not only do they clamp, but think in that burrow cuz i've had it done to me
[01:07:41] they take your car away. and put it somewhere and you have to find that,
[01:07:45] go to the car, pay hundreds of pounds and you, maybe maybe you didn't pay
[01:07:49] for the ticket, maybe the ticket went over, whatever
[01:07:50] it is, i've come twice now, had my car, i've gone and
[01:07:54] oh, the car's gone, the car already has gone, these guys, they're not taking the car,
[01:07:58] they just give them a fine, then they can come back with this vehicle, it's quite obvious to me what they could
[01:08:02] do, or in the case the pedy cabs right, the police would drive up, they'd sort
[01:08:06] of clear out, but it'd literally be they'd go from one side the
[01:08:09] road round to the other side so... just like what is this actually
[01:08:13] doing? you're moving them on, but it's just it wasn't
[01:08:17] serving any purpose that was making things better. and do we know um what would happen
[01:08:21] if you breach the license cuz you said there's a license coming? do we know what the
[01:08:25] penalties are? have we got any details? well yeah there should be consequences, but this look the thing is
[01:08:28] again it's TFL transport for London that are going to have to
[01:08:32] enforce this. now anyone that will have been on the tube will have seen how good
[01:08:36] TFL are at enforcement with people that just walk through the
[01:08:39] barriers. so look, I hope that they do a good job. to crack down in it,
[01:08:43] but let's wait and see, they need a system like the traffic wardens, because
[01:08:47] they they're kind of good. Peter Blexley, what do you make of this? It's literally under the
[01:08:50] noses the police, under the noses the the
[01:08:54] MPs, yeah, no one's bothered. Yeah, well, good work, Zack and thank you, well
[01:08:58] done. Um, the core problem of so many the
[01:09:02] ills that we suffer in Britain today, including exactly this kind of
[01:09:05] stuff, is because the police gave up patrol in the streets,
[01:09:09] now they will say we had to because we had... other
[01:09:12] priorities, they have an element of an argument there, but it
[01:09:16] was certainly no justification for surrendering
[01:09:20] that beat bobby, that patrolling the street, back in the day
[01:09:24] those people would have been, and I use the word quite openly,
[01:09:27] hounded by the police officer whose beat that was, they'd have been
[01:09:31] stopped and prosecuted one day, stopped and prosecuted the next day and so on
[01:09:35] and so on and so forth, the streets have of Britain have been
[01:09:39] surrendered by our police, and these are the problems that are so...
[01:09:42] manifest across the UK, well I mean the issue
[01:09:46] for me is that we're now going to introduce load of regulations which have to
[01:09:50] be police and regulator and inspectors and all that why not just ban them,
[01:09:54] there is no reason for those pedig car things to exist, they didn't used to
[01:09:58] exist, now they do, the only people that are using the motoris who are being
[01:10:02] fleesed and going home with terrible impression of our great city of London
[01:10:06] so just ban them completely, yeah I'm I understand
[01:10:09] service, it should be bound, I mean it's kind of like a... they, but they are
[01:10:13] danger, they are danger on the streets,
[01:10:15] what is the regulated, like they're supposed to be, there's a license coming out for one,
[01:10:19] but as we just heard, it's very unlikely that this license is going to be properly
[01:10:22] enforced, and I think when there's a real health and safety issue, which I also fundamentally
[01:10:26] believe about these petty cabs, which are constantly in my way when I'm walking through Central
[01:10:30] London, I don't think the tourists themselves are particularly safe, lot
[01:10:33] them are often drunk frankly when taking these things, they
[01:10:37] bl music, health and safety issue and they should absolutely be
[01:10:41] banned, yeah. "and I think even more so now that we've heard about the sort
[01:10:45] their business terms which sound absolute extorsion, I didn't realize how bad it was, thank
[01:10:49] you for the work that you're doing, you're a bit of hero, I'm for sure talking to
[01:10:52] these people, because if they can't even speak English then, they
[01:10:56] can't, that's
[01:10:57] a lie, well, of course they can speak, they can, they
[01:11:01] have to be up to speak English to understand where they're taking you, where where you want to
[01:11:05] go, they can speak certain locations are, but no, I
[01:11:08] really doubt that these, I, I don't, I think it should be absolutely banned." tactic
[01:11:12] they can speak English or they can speak enough English to understand what you're saying and answer the
[01:11:16] question and speak to tourists who probably don't speak English, I mean it's an
[01:11:20] absolute shocker now this it's a racket
[01:11:23] though so really the police need to get involved TFL yes
[01:11:27] could be involved in uh making sure these people have whatever paperwork they
[01:11:31] need but if ultimately it's said like racket then that
[01:11:35] becomes something which is something the police should be looking at yeah
[01:11:38] actually so what I would surprise me I've done invest.
[01:11:42] into the begging gangs and what again people will be familiar with, they'll say this is very
[01:11:46] obvious, they all have identikit signs and often
[01:11:50] times you would get people that would go, pick up the signs, go to the different pitches, it's
[01:11:54] all very hierarchical and the money is going straight out the
[01:11:57] country. this was essentially the same business model, and what does
[01:12:01] that link into? well, it doesn't take long when you've got an organized gang,
[01:12:05] it's organized crime and some pretty nasty people that are involved,
[01:12:09] so yeah, it might seem like, oh, it's just some tourist getting. but it's where
[01:12:13] does that lead? it's it's to some very dark places
[01:12:16] and
[01:12:18] it but what surprises me is just how open it is they all like to see the
[01:12:22] organization is how they all got a laminated card with the same pictures
[01:12:25] on it, the same price structure and they all arrive coordinated at
[01:12:29] certain times and the speaking each other speaking on the phones, it it's just
[01:12:33] brazenly obvious and then
[01:12:35] you speak to the others and they say yeah look the problem is is there's a Romanian gang there that's
[01:12:39] controlling it yeah and you know what this isn't just p issue
[01:12:42] a lot of, i don't know if you've encountered, but some these like homeless people who put on
[01:12:46] acts for example, are actually all in kind of gang type
[01:12:50] organizations and then all speak each other and like have the same sort of
[01:12:54] thing going on, 'London is full these organized crimes, actually that's just
[01:12:58] that's just you know this is the nice stuff, in reality I've been to sentencing hearings
[01:13:02] where you see really dark stuff that's going on in the underbelly of our city that no one's doing
[01:13:06] anything about and you know London has a real issue and I
[01:13:09] think Peter's right to point the fact that it was that it's fundamentally lawlessness and lack of
[01:13:13] law enforcement as young PC we'd arrest beggers yeah
[01:13:17] we would arrest people who obstruct in the highway and all that kind of stuff not
[01:13:21] only did you cut your teeth on policing and dealing with prisons that way
[01:13:25] 'you also kept the streets safe and enjoyable for
[01:13:28] people, but I repeat, policing has surrendered
[01:13:32] the streets and that is largely in part to the fluffy, woke,
[01:13:36] liberal, idiotic generation or to of senior police
[01:13:40] leaders who have allowed that to happen. We need to get
[01:13:44] forceful, we need to get firm, and the police need to
[01:13:47] realize that policing is not a popularity contest, it
[01:13:51] is policing, and that makes you rampantly unpopular'. lot
[01:13:55] the time, so be it, get on a job, well aren't they even looking at new
[01:13:58] legislation so that they can sue the police, people can sue the police,
[01:14:02] I mean this is just another, I agree, police officers behave badly, there should be
[01:14:06] punishment, but there already is that, but then given the public the the opportunity to then
[01:14:10] sue the police, I mean it's just a bit much, I want our police to be utterly
[01:14:14] accountable, but of course there are degrees,
[01:14:18] if you will, okay, I want our police to grow a spine
[01:14:22] once more, to realize that the public. 'in their
[01:14:25] millions want police officers on the street, they want
[01:14:29] dross like Zach has been highlighting through his journalistic work, they want
[01:14:33] them rid the streets, they don't want beggers when they get off the
[01:14:37] tube or the train, and begging is still an offence, you could scoop them
[01:14:41] up and get them off the streets if there was the policing and the political
[01:14:44] will, but this country has gone so far down the fluffy woat
[01:14:48] liberal drain that I wonder if we're ever going to be able to resolve
[01:14:52] it, I'm not sure we will.' Anyway Zack so what's the follow-up
[01:14:56] then from your report? Well actually the next thing we got a
[01:15:00] couple of things coming out but one the ones
[01:15:02] that I think people might be interested in is vapes and barber shops
[01:15:06] and we've found how far that goes and that goes
[01:15:09] to some yeah some pretty bleek places as well so yeah
[01:15:13] stay tuned for that wow wow well look thank you very much Zack really

[01:19:01] waters down these plans? Before the spin sets in, I'll be getting
[01:19:04] to the truth. This is, this is personal. No. soft
[01:19:08] questions, no easy answers. It's one thing if the state
[01:19:11] has rules in this country, it's another thing whether the police and others actually
[01:19:15] police them, setting the agenda and holding those in power to
[01:19:19] account. You can't really blame her if the system is set up this way,

[01:22:08] also said that I'm the best looking presenter on TV, when my makeup
[01:22:12] is good and the lighting is good, otherwise I look moldy. All right, Alex Armstrong tonight
[01:22:16] only on GB news. Let's move on, big story, backbench MPs are
[01:22:20] attempting to overturn a court ruling, and they warn could prevent
[01:22:24] victims of crime from suing police over serious investigative
[01:22:28] failings. Now, the 2025 court of appeal judgment
[01:22:31] expanded police immunity from civil claims over their conduct during
[01:22:35] criminal investigations. Conservative Andrew Mitchell and Labor's
[01:22:39] Jesss have tabled an amendment to reverse the ruling, including in
[01:22:43] cases involving dishonesty, fabricated evidence or serious breaches
[01:22:47] of confidentiality. Well, let's get the thoughts of my panel: former
[01:22:51] labour special advisor Paul Richards, political commentator Alice Grant,
[01:22:54] and former Metropolitan police detective, Peter Blexley. Peter, again I must come
[01:22:58] to you on this first. Yeah, this is a
[01:23:02] narrow sector of policing that this court of appeal
[01:23:05] ruling applies to. and it stems from case
[01:23:09] whereby victim had her address
[01:23:12] incorrectly included on in papers that got
[01:23:16] served to an offender to to somebody away a tri
[01:23:20] had pretty catastrophic consequences for that
[01:23:23] victim. um, so a court have appeared because the case
[01:23:27] got bounced around the courts, there was appeal after appeal and so on, and
[01:23:30] eventually in 2025, the court of appeal ruled
[01:23:34] that officers couldn't be sued
[01:23:37] for mistakes made during criminal
[01:23:40] investigations and such like. now this doesn't mean to
[01:23:44] say that if a police officer breaks the
[01:23:47] law, breaches the police disc code or anything like that, they
[01:23:51] are immune, they most definitely are not, and I
[01:23:55] want our police to be thoroughly
[01:23:58] accountable, but there seems to be some agreement on
[01:24:02] both sides the the political spectrum, the traditional, in so much as that the
[01:24:06] conservative Andrew Mitchell and the Laboring pe Jess Philips have come
[01:24:10] together to try and get this immunity lifted, and
[01:24:14] I can very much see their argument for that, our police do
[01:24:18] need to be accountable, but... should in certain
[01:24:21] areas be a degree of protection for officers when they're doing
[01:24:25] something that we don't do, in other words, when they're holding a gun
[01:24:29] and perhaps contemplating a split second when to pull the trigger or not, you know,
[01:24:33] and police drivers in pursuits for example, there needs to
[01:24:37] be, see that's the problem, isn't it? I get it, but then it
[01:24:41] opens the door to this, where why would I
[01:24:45] want to be um firearms officer if I know that if
[01:24:49] there's some mistake? or something and
[01:24:51] i and i should be held accountable if i shoot the wrong person, but just say in
[01:24:54] the case of um that that guy in the car who was driving up and
[01:24:58] down trying to kill a police officer w he was a very small space uh
[01:25:02] chris cuber yeah in the case of Chris Kubber that
[01:25:05] officer was literally run through the ringer and if this had been
[01:25:09] available then he could be potentially sued and it's
[01:25:13] yeah this is where we have issue that's why
[01:25:14] i have issue with it
[01:25:15] it is challenging it is difficult it's a very messy
[01:25:19] landscape as to what kind of level of
[01:25:22] accountability applies to what officer when they're doing what
[01:25:26] particular role,
[01:25:27] it is difficult, it's challenging, and once again I don't
[01:25:31] hesitate to say, it's a messy landscape. well, Aless, you obviously being
[01:25:35] someone who gets, you working in courts, don't you, so you
[01:25:39] you know about these sort of cases, my way, the problem with
[01:25:42] it is, it's it's open to interpretation, absolutely, but I
[01:25:46] also think there's a degree that we have to recognize that each case will be dealt. with its
[01:25:50] own merits, so when it comes to this messy
[01:25:53] landscape, um, when it comes to accountability, I tend
[01:25:57] to be honestly more um towards holding the state
[01:26:00] accountable in whatever form, whether it's the police or whether it's in the
[01:26:04] healthcare system, um, because I fundamentally believe
[01:26:08] that that that is that is a right that we should have to hold people accountable, especially when
[01:26:12] that of course going to be miscarages of justice and mistakes that are made that
[01:26:15] have real consequences on people's lives,
[01:26:18] and it's often dealing with individuals, in those institutions for example,
[01:26:21] however, um, so yeah, that that my personal stance is
[01:26:25] always going to be um, is is that as so in the case that Peter
[01:26:29] described where the victim's address was left on the paper so
[01:26:33] that the person, the perpetrator could see that address, yeah, in that
[01:26:36] case would you think this would be something,
[01:26:40] that's a real act of negligence, and you know English law
[01:26:44] provides various redress victims of
[01:26:47] negligence in such cases so... that exists for reason and I
[01:26:51] think you know if if something terrible happens to victim because of someone's negligent
[01:26:55] behavior then that should go through the
[01:26:58] courts um and justice should be served because
[01:27:01] ultimately
[01:27:02] you know these forces are here to protect us and it's not necessarily about
[01:27:06] denigrating the institutions themselves but just simply
[01:27:09] providing justice for victims but so then
[01:27:13] this immunity wouldn't apply in that case anyway no I don't think it should
[01:27:17] apply no that's fine but then is
[01:27:19] there any need to to remove it then and is there any is
[01:27:22] there any need to tamper with it at all, just leave it as
[01:27:24] it is? if we've got laws that deal with cases anyway, why do we
[01:27:28] need more? well actually if you look if you well generally
[01:27:31] speaking, i think um looking at various
[01:27:34] judgments, the police often have had lot of benefit from
[01:27:38] immunity, and you know for example the UK
[01:27:41] um supreme court case of Robinson and Hill changed that when it come came to an old
[01:27:45] lady who was knocked over by police and some kind of chase and the thing is is that up
[01:27:49] until that point it very much been the case that the police were immune um
[01:27:53] from proceedings generally, so we come from a place of very staunch
[01:27:57] protections for our police, and I think over time we have to
[01:28:00] recognize um that we should make allowances for victims
[01:28:03] essentially. All right, Paul Richard, with this? where Well,
[01:28:06] you I, do Andrew Mitchell and Jesss are serious people, and they're
[01:28:09] approaching this with the right intent. I mean, the only word of warning I would
[01:28:13] sound is a general point, not the specific of this law, but the
[01:28:17] general point is we don't want to get into a situation where... citizens are
[01:28:21] routinely suing the police getting into a very sort of you
[01:28:24] know litigious kind of environment where people are very
[01:28:28] litigious
[01:28:31] thinking the comparison with health service you know the NHS spends millions and millions
[01:28:35] of pounds a year dealing with litigation and I think there might be other ways
[01:28:38] of getting just and getting uh redress
[01:28:42] and getting accountability into the system without it necessarily being
[01:28:46] about personal individual suing I think with the NHS I mean
[01:28:50] you know if they're going around killing people by accident which
[01:28:53] you know often there case but people but if there are mistakes
[01:28:57] where people
[01:28:58] the the consequences are quite severe um you know and people can end up dying what
[01:29:02] do you like? or not, the way our common law has developed is that we all have individual rights
[01:29:06] which can be enforced through our courts, and that is just the way it's always been,
[01:29:10] you know, if you are victim of negligence, whether it's clinical negligence and
[01:29:13] personal injury case, or whether you are victim of negligence you know by
[01:29:17] police, then you have a right to sue, and that I don't, I don't think that's
[01:29:21] kind of untouchable to be honest, but you had that, did you not have that right before anyway
[01:29:25] with the police, yes, and the police have been sued many, many times over a wide
[01:29:29] variety of of of matters um, "I think a
[01:29:33] lot of this could be addressed if the policing
[01:29:37] structure retained experienced officers, if they
[01:29:40] were better trained, if there was greater attention to
[01:29:44] detail and thorrowness, which I find slipping away from so
[01:29:48] much of public life anyway, so much work done in
[01:29:51] various parts of public service seems
[01:29:54] slapdash, even when you come down to the
[01:29:58] spelling, the grammar, the punctuation and all those kind of
[01:30:02] things. which are important because so often the devil is
[01:30:06] in the detail. are we not at risk there of deterring people from becoming police
[01:30:09] officers? not that they're going to deliberately cause errors and then think oh god
[01:30:13] I'm going to be, but it just that and also detering them
[01:30:17] from actually going through with the law, because it almost gives the
[01:30:20] criminal slightly more power, well I'll see you if you do this and I'll do
[01:30:24] you what I mean, it's sort of hands more power back to what our
[01:30:28] police officers should have when they are investigating crime
[01:30:32] is... sufficient time to do that job
[01:30:35] properly. I suspect, although I don't have any evidence to support
[01:30:39] it, but the fact that that address of that victim was inadverting left
[01:30:43] in report is probably because detective somewhere had such
[01:30:47] an overbearing workload with so many cases on
[01:30:51] their desk that sometimes things like mistakes like that
[01:30:55] do occur. We need sufficient officers with
[01:30:59] manageable and proper workloads and not have. them
[01:31:03] works to the point where they go, I've had enough and they
[01:31:06] resigned, maybe we because the police are now doing lot of paperwork,
[01:31:10] I think they need more, maybe administrators to do lot of that side of things for them, I
[01:31:14] guess or something, but it's too much, the too much, I don't know, this this to
[01:31:17] me, it sounds like the right thing to do, but I i feel it's
[01:31:21] rought with danger, but coming up, we'll bring you all of tomorrow's front

[01:35:26] Hello, good evening, this is Alex Armstrong, tonight, only on GB News, I'm Nanna
[01:35:30] Aqueer. Time to bring you tomorrow's front pages. All
[01:35:34] right, so the eye paper leads with tax rises needed to
[01:35:37] plug the 35 billion pound gap.
[01:35:41] UK economists warn the chancellor, the sun.
[01:35:45] BBC in strictly transban row, well
[01:35:49] I haven't actually watched any strictly so I'm interested to find out what that's all about, that's on
[01:35:53] the sun, the metro Russia rolling
[01:35:56] Brexit, I wonder what that's about, interesting stuff, we have to have read of
[01:36:00] that one, let's get the thoughts of my panel, former special advisor Paul Richards,
[01:36:04] political commentator Alice Grant, and former Metropolitan police
[01:36:07] detective Peter Blexley. All right, let's start with the
[01:36:11] front cover the eye, which leads with Taxis. needed to
[01:36:15] plug the 35 billion pound gap. UK
[01:36:19] economists are warning the chancellor. do you see here we go again?
[01:36:22] so once again we're talking about tax rises uh high
[01:36:26] inflation and UK's defense spending pledge mean that the chancelor
[01:36:30] faces 35 billion pound budget gap. that's what economists have
[01:36:34] warned. sticking to the manifesto tax lock whilst meeting
[01:36:37] spending pressure will be very difficult. that's what the IFS
[01:36:41] chief tells the I newspaper. even chunky. capital gains
[01:36:45] tax hike unlikely to suffice, so there we have it, we have
[01:36:49] it, we knew that they were going to make a mess of it, um, margaret thatcher warned us the
[01:36:53] problem with socialism and here we are reaping the benefits of it, poor
[01:36:57] richards, well he's boxed in John Headley as he said
[01:37:00] with themselves in, they no, well the manifesto pledges you can't, there's
[01:37:04] three main taxes you can't increase um, and we do know
[01:37:08] also that there are these spending pressures largely caused by the war uh in
[01:37:12] Ukraine but also the turmoil in the Middle East as well. with increasing
[01:37:16] prices and
[01:37:16] so on, so he's limit is limited in what he can do in the budget, I don't think in the
[01:37:20] budget we will see massive tax increases though,
[01:37:24] because he doesn't
[01:37:25] want to repeat the mistake that Rachel Reeves made of dampening growth, and the one
[01:37:29] thing that John Healey is all about, if you listen to his speech at the conference last week is
[01:37:32] growth, they know that without growth the game is over, I
[01:37:36] didn't hear much about growth, I mean what was he planning to grow, he
[01:37:40] said that we will grow the economy so we can then use that
[01:37:44] increased. revenue to pay for the public services we rely on, did he mention
[01:37:48] any anything about how he was going to grow? well you do it by the private
[01:37:52] sector being boosted and that's how you have to do it, which is what all of this
[01:37:55] infrastructure spending is all about, it's about growth in every post code, this is the
[01:37:59] light motif the government, hoping every heart,
[01:38:02] i don't think the private sector is going to be able to grow with taxes slapped on
[01:38:06] people like capital gains and business tax which we've
[01:38:10] seen and taxing employees and
[01:38:13] this is not how you grow economy. "I'm
[01:38:15] not an economist, but I can kind of tell that we've been doing something wrong, and I
[01:38:19] think, the absolute chaos over Liz Trust's budget, which
[01:38:23] actually in hindsight seems to be like much more beneficial way to grow economy, if
[01:38:27] you actually want to stimulate business and stimulate growth and incentive people to
[01:38:30] work appointed the guy that wrote that to be her shadow
[01:38:33] chancellor, socialism isn't working,
[01:38:37] labor isn't working, but at least Andrew Griffitz has
[01:38:40] an idea, I mean John Healey couldn't, but we tried the idea,
[01:38:44] we never tried." couldn't even work out how many ships we had when he was the defense
[01:38:48] secretary, then he he resigned a point of principle that there wasn't enough
[01:38:52] money being spent on the chancelor has not mentioned how
[01:38:56] he's going on. treasury when Gordon Brown was there growing the
[01:38:59] economy 2.8% every single quarter the labor government and that's what we need to get back to
[01:39:03] you're talking about Gordon Brown what about now Peter you're the
[01:39:07] language that you and your political types
[01:39:10] use is so deeply insult in to the
[01:39:14] audience to the general public you just said the chancellor is
[01:39:18] boxed in no no he's bound
[01:39:22] by this labor chancellor is bound by labor
[01:39:26] manifesto. "that's all it is boxed in, you're trying to make it
[01:39:30] like some kind of like you're excuse-finder general,
[01:39:33] like this was forged by somebody else, like this is not
[01:39:37] labor's fault, labor wrote the manifesto, labor got
[01:39:41] elected on that and he's got to live with it, yeah, but if you then broke those
[01:39:45] pledges you'd be the first to say, oh you have a manifesto, then you've breached your promises
[01:39:49] and a bunch of lier
[01:39:50] and all the rest of it, call that would say call a general election, i think people are paying enough
[01:39:54] tax and i don't want to see i don't want to see income tax go up" the rules by
[01:39:58] which you have been voted in for and there were strict rules in your manifesto and
[01:40:02] that's what people voted for because they thought you were going to do that
[01:40:06] when you are not even the elected prime minister the day at the time
[01:40:09] you
[01:40:10] have but he's not doing that is he that's the whole point won't increase v8 it won't increase
[01:40:14] income tax because that's the manifesto
[01:40:17] on which now after the election what goes into the next manifesto
[01:40:21] who knows we're not there yet but at the moment they are boxed in well you might
[01:40:25] not be writing th
[01:40:27] it you might might not write the winning manifesto at the next election, well then
[01:40:31] we'll go back to the the lettis and uh slashing the state and
[01:40:34] no, it might be maybe another party that writes, it may be
[01:40:38] some other party that writes the winning manifesto police officers
[01:40:42] off the streets, we shall have to wait and see is a massive mistake, we shall have to
[01:40:46] wait and see, well well let's have look at the front cover the metro then this one leads
[01:40:50] with Russia roll in Brexit, Andy Burnham has
[01:40:54] said that there is clear evidence that Russia, interfered
[01:40:58] in the Brexit vote, he said that he had asked if
[01:41:01] the Kremlin had meddled in the 2016 referendum
[01:41:05] when he entered number 10 in July and was given the clear
[01:41:09] answer that yes there was,
[01:41:11] as if Russia are going to tell you all of that. I mean, I'm
[01:41:15] sorry, but I think this is all setup so that you can now move on and say
[01:41:19] right, it's time to have another vote on Brexit because it was Russia's fault that the British
[01:41:23] people voted for sovereignty. British people aren't stupid, I i'm bored of seeing this.
[01:41:27] as if they think that we're stupid uh, I voted for Brexit because I
[01:41:31] wasn't happy with the situation, I wanted sovereignty, I wanted us to be making our own laws, how's
[01:41:35] that going? well, well I wanted us to be doing that, let tell you why I voted for them first and then
[01:41:39] then i'll explain how it's going, it's going badly because the people because
[01:41:42] of this obfiscation and distraction and and all the people around who didn't want it to
[01:41:46] happen, you've done everything in their power to make sure it doesn't happen and they're not prepared to
[01:41:50] uh, there's no will, which is you, I'd also
[01:41:52] say that I'd much rather that our bad mistakes are being made
[01:41:56] by politic.
[01:42:13] We are poor and less free than 10 years
[01:42:16] free, my challenge to prime minister
[01:42:20] Burnham is very, very simple, if there's the evidence, show us
[01:42:24] please, so perhaps we can. we can
[01:42:28] perhaps act accordingly, let's see the evidence, but the idea that the Russians are not
[01:42:31] interfering, we know they are, they're bribing politicians, they're hacking into our
[01:42:35] systems, they're paying - and
[01:42:39] assassinations and espionage and sabotage and it's
[01:42:43] happening on our behalf, so the British people voted, are you saying that they sent
[01:42:47] some stuff on social media that convince people
[01:42:50] that is the other way round for there is
[01:42:54] an enormous amount of evidence
[01:42:56] of th the other
[01:42:57] way around
[01:43:05] so loser,
[01:43:05] and if there is another vote, we're going to vote for Brexit again, so bring as an old
[01:43:09] as an old school former detective, I say
[01:43:12] once again, show us the evidence, so therefore if there was
[01:43:16] concrete evidence of that interference, we can protect
[01:43:19] against it in future elections, it's really very simple, well it's
[01:43:23] also said that the similar sort of interference and activities were taken. bas in
[01:43:27] France and Germany, so the prime minister told the rest is politics
[01:43:31] podcast, the external that upon arriving in number 10, he had
[01:43:35] asked about possible Russian interference in the 2016 vote, adding,
[01:43:39] I've had clear answer that there was yes, okay, from
[01:43:43] here, that's why we all did it, then the Russians told us to
[01:43:45] do it, then we just thought, well okay, the Russians are interfering, but everyone's
[01:43:48] interfering with everything, I think, um, you talk about China's interference,
[01:43:52] maybe next Andy, all right, well coming up more of
[01:43:56] tomorrow's front pages included. the front page the express that features
[01:44:00] zach garkus, he was on earlier showing uh, we showed him
[01:44:03] at the top the show with regard to those pety caps, stay with

[01:45:11] No soft questions, no easy answers. It's one thing if the
[01:45:15] state has rules in this country, it's another thing whether the police and others

[01:47:22] good evening, right, let's return to the front pages for tomorrow, the
[01:47:25] express migrant gang scam is sign of broken
[01:47:29] britain, of course that's the whole gangs, the petty cabs we had um
[01:47:33] sat karna percus on talking about that, you can uh check out the full store
[01:47:37] and the front cover the daily express and Star leads
[01:47:41] letus liz iceberg ahead. Yes, that is of course the
[01:47:45] chancellor urged to steady the ship. Trust Star crash
[01:47:48] can happen again. I think we're doing it but in slow motion. Uh,
[01:47:52] on the mail, Boris Blass sickening Trump deal with
[01:47:56] Putin. Front cover the met the mirror. Hero tried to save
[01:47:59] him. This of course that tragic incident of that horror attack at
[01:48:03] the tiger park. Of course the tiger is tiger, so if you climb into the enclosure,
[01:48:07] it's probably likely to try and savage you ' the guardian heat
[01:48:11] pump subsidy to be cut to fund defense plan, well there you go, this is what we
[01:48:15] thought would happen with net zero, independent, the independent
[01:48:18] now, independent then, independent then,
[01:48:22] independent now, telegraph lead with Putin breaks Trump's
[01:48:25] seas far, let's get the thoughts of my panel, former labor special
[01:48:29] advisor Paul Richards, political commentator Alice Grant,
[01:48:33] and former Metropolitan police detective peter Blexley, all
[01:48:36] right, let's start with, should we start with the front cover the...
[01:48:40] guardian, let's have look at it now, what we got in the guardian? oh here we
[01:48:43] go, heat f subsidy to the cut to fund
[01:48:47] defense plan, of course nobody's buying heat pumps are because they're
[01:48:51] extionate and they don't work in the housing stock that we have, very stupid
[01:48:55] idea uh executed with nearly thicking confidence
[01:48:58] by conservatives and of course the labour party, mean this is a
[01:49:02] government which if you don't if you're a call cut the aid
[01:49:05] budget to fund defense in under the starmer and is now going to be doing
[01:49:09] some not dissimilar with this sort of net zero heat pump
[01:49:13] subsidy to to fund defense, because it makes the bigger point, we
[01:49:17] must get our defense spending up to the
[01:49:21] NATO average. "and we've got to defend ourselves and the rest
[01:49:25] the west against Russian imperialism. could we get our welfare
[01:49:28] budget down? yeah, that would be nice.
[01:49:30] we need to do that as well, we need to get people into work, don't we, so they're paying taxes and not
[01:49:34] taking welfare benefits, not taking the what?
[01:49:37] oh, I thought you going to say something else, but the
[01:49:41] point being we need to increase our defense expenditure, that's that's the bottom line
[01:49:45] by you, almost any means necessary, and this is what this is a good example of. well, miata
[01:49:49] fampular, she's the energy secretary, she's got the job of finding..."
[01:49:53] uh more than 30 billion or two billion actually
[01:49:57] department department
[01:49:58] being
[01:49:58] each asked so yeah to come up with the money i agree but each
[01:50:01] department the welfare i think is the biggest department
[01:50:04] that there is a real problem again john
[01:50:08] hely speech said the the moral stain of nearly million people uh
[01:50:12] young people not not it is ridiculous i would
[01:50:15] personally look at um some form of national service for that's what i said
[01:50:19] you said that last time what do you think some form of
[01:50:23] national service to get the young people who say that they can't get a job, either find a job
[01:50:27] or you serve do some national service? yeah, i think that'd be very good for moral and also
[01:50:31] patriotism, which is a real crisis,
[01:50:32] i think among young people, because we never really been taught to love this
[01:50:36] country and to,
[01:50:37] you know, and whilst i'm generally very anti-worn, think a lot of my generation
[01:50:41] don't see the point in in these pointless conflicts, um,
[01:50:45] it is absolutely a good thing to do, i think ultimately to increase
[01:50:49] patriotism, the way you prevent war, is by having strong is the
[01:50:53] deterrent effects of having a large army and nuclear defense and the ability to
[01:50:57] strike back and that's why you stop wars, but look, look what we've done over the
[01:51:00] decades, we've completely destroyed like our ability to defend
[01:51:03] ourselves, so this is the thing i think we're in such crisis because we
[01:51:07] need have the ability to properly defend ourselves if
[01:51:10] there was a war, please god may the never be, but at the same
[01:51:13] time like people can't afford
[01:51:16] you to live in this country anymore, cost of living crisis is so high,
[01:51:19] please, please don't burden. our wonderful
[01:51:23] military with the workshire, the flaky, the fluffy,
[01:51:27] the bone idol and the lazy, it would
[01:51:31] be getting young people to do, it doesn't have to be the war
[01:51:34] side of it, it could be helping make something or build something or
[01:51:38] doing, i wouldn't have them doing
[01:51:42] any of that, i'd have them in uniform getting up at 4 am, but you could
[01:51:45] tr and learning discipline, beleagared military has
[01:51:48] enough
[01:51:49] of a job its hand to try to function as well as it possibly? and
[01:51:53] because the affor mentioned cuts, I agree, to suddenly burden
[01:51:56] them would try and knock the bone idle in the shape, would detract them
[01:52:00] from their primary job, which is to defend this
[01:52:04] nation, if you're thinking perhaps of some form of
[01:52:07] territorial community type of
[01:52:11] uh thing, then I'm certainly be open to
[01:52:14] b,
[01:52:19] so so you're going to drag somebody a youngster. "now I've got
[01:52:23] anxiety so I can't go to work, you're you would have
[01:52:27] to drag them off the sofa then they'd sue you for assault or prosecute for
[01:52:31] salt right, then you probably have to dry their urin stain freaking
[01:52:35] jogging bottoms right, then you've got to get them a bus somewhere
[01:52:39] and oh could you imagine oh my
[01:52:41] word find a
[01:52:44] job
[01:52:46] exactly exactly the anxiety would be like oh
[01:52:49] oh fine not feeling so
[01:52:53] anxious, well don't burn the military with that please, but I think honestly I
[01:52:57] mean the anxiety epidemic I think is it just a shocker, I
[01:53:01] mean if you got anxiety surely you're better off going to work than ruminating
[01:53:04] about your anxiety and when has that ever helped anybody, it's just absolute
[01:53:08] shocker. All right, what should we look at next? should we look at the front cover
[01:53:12] the male? Boris blast, sickening Trump deal with
[01:53:16] Putin,
[01:53:17] now this is of course uh an exclusive for the mail uh, he
[01:53:21] is calling on the roll name. to intercept Russia's diesel and says that US
[01:53:25] bank rolls slaughter, but I think it's kind of hypocritical really, because at the end
[01:53:29] the day Europe, many countries in Europe are still buying oil
[01:53:33] from Putin, so I'm looking at
[01:53:35] this sing yeah, but they are even Trump warned Germany and
[01:53:38] said, you need to stop buying all from this man, you're funding the war. The
[01:53:42] idea that we should intercept Russian fuel ships
[01:53:46] is utterly ridiculous. Why? Why is it?
[01:53:50] Because on an other front page. we have a 35 billion
[01:53:54] apparently black hole in our finances, mean why would we be
[01:53:58] so reckless? i think it's very reckless of for us to be saying stuff like
[01:54:01] this, well i think
[01:54:03] the mean fundamentally logical, i've not read his article, but what i imagine he's suggesting
[01:54:07] is that the money that would be raised on the open markets from this diesel cell will
[01:54:11] go straight to the kremlin and fund the war in
[01:54:14] Ukraine which is against our interests. wasn't some kind of
[01:54:18] fuel ceasefire announced by president trump this afternoon?
[01:54:22] stuff up, doesn't he? but didn't Zelensky apparently agree to it? no,
[01:54:26] he didn't, and Zelensky in fact is on the front page is saying, I don't know what you're talking about,
[01:54:30] yeah, I don't,
[01:54:31] I don't think
[01:54:31] we can, he says literally whatever comes in. no
[01:54:35] filter at all, don't worry bause these guys are staying because we got a whole load more news
[01:54:39] to bring you up next, it's alex armstrong tonight late edition,
[01:54:43] do not go anywhere, we'll all be back for that one, but first let's get an
